Lysine - safe to take?
I am 13 weeks now, with multiple miscarriages in my background. I have been spotting for the past four weeks. It's worrisome, but the cause has been pinpointed as a small subchorionic bleed which is almost gone now. A natural healer has suggested that I take 500mg Lysine, which he feels will cleanse my blood and stop the spotting. Understandably I feel leery to introduce anything extraneous into my body, espcially in light of my losses. Do you have any information on Lysine? Is it harmless, contraindicated or useless? Is it safe to take or should I rather avoid it? Is there also anything else I can do to stop the spotting aside from modified bedrest?
I thank you for your time and expertise.
